Apple is announcing watchOS 5, a major update to its smartwatch platform.
The update puts a big focus on new fitness and health features. You can now challenge any of your friends to a seven-day exercise competition, which will compare your tracking stats to your friends'. The winner will get an award to add to their collection, kind of like a real-life achievement system. There are also new workout types, including yoga and hiking. Outdoor running can now track your rolling-mile pace—how fast you ran for the last mile—and will alert you if you're falling behind your target pace. If you forget to start workout detection at the beginning of your workout, watchOS' new automatic workout detection can retroactively credit you with workout time. It can also give you a heads-up if you forget to stop the activity tracking.
